why would you play a sports game when you could just go out and play that sport? that's why i dont play sports games, and also why i dont have a genesis

Sweat. Pain. Filth.
Not gonna do sports that require HEAVY physical activity (unless it's cyclin or a running-up-the-stairs race) until my metabolism gets significantly slower. I don't need that muscle anyway but I may need the +Max HP and +Vit

sega genesis had the cd which had the best game of all time you ready
SONIC CD!!!!!!!!!!!

i disagree. SuperNES didnt even need all the crap the Genesis needed. SNES had the FX chip! with genesis, you needed to buy all these crappy add-ons. one game cannot make a whole console good if it's clouded by all the crap around it. i think AGVN said it best when he said that the Genesis was thriving on it's add-ons, and that they made it look like it was on life-support. and are you forgetting that SEGA is making games on NINTENDO consoles? that should be proof enough that the genesis wasnt a true winner.
side note: OoT is the best game ever, having received the best reviews ever.

@Reala lets not forget that the genesis needed add-ons to expand it's life, but all the SNES needed was an FX chip. with SNES, you didnt need to waste so much money on an ad-on.@mieu-fire list 15 "good" games. my, i can name 15 SNES games off the top of my head.
1. super starwars (hope, empire, and jedi make up 3 so far)
4. super mario world
5. super mario kart
6. starfox
7. super metroid
8. super dk country
9. super castlevania
10. LINK TO THE PAST
11. sim city
12. megaman X
13. DOOM
14. super mario RPG
15. Chrono trigger
and the list of good SNES games goes on to 185 but you get the point

@mieu-fire
alright, what about those crappy add ons?
let's not forget all the cords that the add-ons needed! cant forget those!
im sure you had a lot of fun playing sonic when your genesis looks like this. SNES had FX chips, so it didnt need all that crap to have better graphics. and besides, have you seen the AGVN reviews for the sega add ons? and did i mention: sega is making games on nintendo consoles (im pretty sure i mentioned that before, but im too lazy to check).

i never really liked the sonic games. i dont understand how anyone can either. sure the running around is really fun, but when im running as fast as i can, i run into a rock i couldnt see, because i was having too much fun. so if you say that sonic is fun, your argument is invalid. in fact, a lot of the old sonic games on the genesis had maps that looked more like platforming levels than running levels. and as we all know, platforming with sonic is a joke.

But you have to admit, it would be redundant if the Sonic games were JUST about running around. I feel as if the level design wouldn't have as much structure if it was.

I couldn't stand the sonic games either. Sloppy platforming combined with "OMGZ, look at how fast he's blazing across the screen while flinging from springs and running through Loopdeeloops!" It's almost like the equivelant of watching someone on a roller coaster ride.

Sonic 1 & 2 look, feel and play completely second rate in comparsion to Super Mario World. But at least the Genesis had Moon Walker. "who's bad!"

And the Genesis 3 button controller, which i was holding a couple of hours ago feels pretty awful imo. The NES controller trumps it and the same goes for the SNES controller. The 3 buttons plus the D pad just feel...well, not as tactical and comfortable.
